Why Human Resource Management Series?

In today’s competitive business environment, human resource management (HRM) has shifted from being a
business function to a strategic tool as organizations increasingly recognize its contribution to organizational
performance. HRM’s role is no longer restricted to serving personnel issues but is now serving strategic
company objectives and goals as well. Business leaders are starting to perceive HRM as a unique source of
competitive advantage through its direct impact on employee productivity and motivation.

In Lebanon, many companies continue to hold traditional views of HRM and consequently fail to capitalize
on its full potential. In response, this series develops participants’ understanding about the strategic role that
HRM can play in achieving high organizational performance.
 

 Workshop topics include: 

•  Gestion du temps, du stress et des conflits.
•  Conduite efficace des réunions.
•  Sales and marketing skills.
•  Negotiation skills.

AMIDEAST will also start offering certified trainings, and most importantly the Project Management Professional (PMP®) course certified by the Project Management Institute.

AMIDEAST offre un programme de formation qui débutera le 13 Février 2012 pour une durée de 6 mois. Ce programme sera basé sur deux axes principaux : Linguistique et Formation professionnelle.

PRESENTATION SKILLS

Workshop Overview

Presentations can be challenging – most of the time you will be the only person talking. In a conversation or a meeting you can sometimes take time to think of a question or what you would like to say. In a presentation, on the other hand, every pause can feel like an eternity! It therefore pays to be very well prepared.

This workshop will help you with the language of presentations – how to introduce yourself and the topic, how to describe visuals you may include in your presentation and much more. In addition you will master the various techniques that make up effective presentations, including brainstorming and organizing ideas, tailoring content to an audience, designing powerful visual aids, planning for adequate facilities, and stimulating audience interest.
